Author Ronda
Chervin, Ph.D., has called this "one of the best books I have ever read."
Written by Felix Carroll, Loved, Lost, Found profiles 17 everyday people who
discover God's extraordinary mercy. They include a former abortionist, a blind
atheist, an unfaithful husband, a former cult member, a rape victim, a prisoner,
a former "workaholic," and a survivor of the "Miracle on the
Hudson" plane crash, among others. Jesus told St. Faustina "The greater
the sinner, the greater the right he has to My mercy." This book illustrates
how Jesus shows mercy to prodigals.

Praise
for Loved, Lost, Found

This is a
fabulous book. What does our world need more than mercy? People everywhere are
hurting and hungry for the compassionate mercy of God. By reading this book
you will learn how to bring God's mercy to all those who cross your path.
-Matthew Kelly, founder of DynamicCatholic.com and author of
The Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic

Truly, this
is one of the best books I have ever read. Loved, Lost, Found is a book to cherish
and to give copies of to everyone you know, be they skeptics or ardent Catholics.
In our grim times, how we need to read about these victories of Divine Mercy
in the lives of people as diverse as a dentist, a blind Jew turned Catholic,
and a former abortionist. We even read about the father of a murdered daughter
who tries to save her murderer from execution and a woman in a New Age cult
who is attacked by Satan but then finds freedom in God's mercy.
Felix Carroll is a wonderful stylist. He enters into the heart and soul and
life of each of those he interviews, so that each one comes alive for us as
we see the person transformed by the mercy of Jesus. Loved, Lost, Found also
has insights about life in general that will surprise and enlighten you.
Congratulations, Marian Press, on Loved, Lost, Found.

ope Paul
VI once said that we listen more willingly today to witnesses than to teachers,
and that if we do listen to teachers, it is because they are witnesses. Felix
Carroll has given us 17 witnesses in this beautiful book who teach us through
the stories of their lives that God's mercy is available to us as well. I highly
recommend this book which is hard to put down. Felix has done a wonderful job
of showing us that God is real, that He is close to us, and that He is doing
great things in people's lives. We learn what is possible if we open our hearts
and trust in God's merciful love.

About
Author

Saint
Maria Faustina was born Helena Kowalska in a small village west of Lodz, Poland
on August 25, 1905. She was the third of ten children. When she was almost twenty,
she entered the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy, whose members
devote themselves to the care and education of troubled young women. The following
year she received her religious habit and was given the name Sister Maria Faustina,
to which she added, "of the Most Blessed Sacrament", as was permitted
by her congregation's custom. In the 1930's, Sister Faustina received from the
Lord a message of mercy that she was told to spread throughout the world. She
was asked to become the apostle and secretary of God's mercy, a model of how
to be merciful to others, and an instrument for reemphasizing God's plan of
mercy for the world. It was not a glamorous prospect.

Her
entire life, in imitation of Christ's, was to be a sacrifice - a life lived
for others. At the Divine Lord's request, she willingly offered her personal
sufferings in union with Him to atone for the sins of others; in her daily life
she was to become a doer of mercy, bringing joy and peace to others, and by
writing about God's mercy, she was to encourage others to trust in Him and thus
prepare the world for His coming again. Her special devotion to Mary Immaculate
and to the sacraments of Eucharist and Reconciliation gave her the strength
to bear all her sufferings as an offering to God on behalf of the Church and
those in special need, especially great sinners and the dying.

She
wrote and suffered in secret, with only her spiritual director and some of her
superiors aware that anything special was taking place in her life. After her
death from tuberculosis in 1938, even her closest associates were amazed as
they began to discover what great sufferings and deep mystical experiences had
been given to this Sister of theirs, who had always been so cheerful and humble.
She had taken deeply into her heart, God's gospel command to "be merciful
even as your heavenly Father is merciful" as well as her confessor's directive
that she should act in such a way that everyone who came in contact with her
would go away joyful. The message of mercy that Sister Faustina received is
now being spread throughout the world; her diary, Divine Mercy in my Soul, has
become the handbook for devotion to the Divine Mercy.

St. Maria Faustina Kowalska
The Book That Sparked the Divine Mercy Movement

The Diary chronicles God's message given through St. Faustina to the
world to turn to His mercy. In it, we are reminded to trust the Divine
Mercy in Jesus and seek His forgiveness. And as Christ is merciful,
so, too, are we instructed to be merciful to others. The message of
Divine Mercy has become an integral part of Catholic faith, including
the celebration of the Feast of Divine Mercy on the Sunday after Easter.
